Business Outlook

Pros

Great salary and commission. Great co-workers. Mentally challenging position.

Cons

Too many hours (working days, concurrent, at a time). Not a position that will further your development in any field of engineering except chemical engineering. As an electrical engineer, this job set me back in my professional growth.

Business Outlook

Pros

Lots of opportunity, always new organizational changes or large initiatives to improve the profitability of the company. The IT group has grown quite a bit. High achievers get recognized pretty easily, get extra projects to prove their stuff. Delivery and execution is key, not just talking the talk.

Cons

A very lean organization, hard to take time away from the work for career development and mentoring. The stock price mostly stays flat with some spikes here and there. There are such rapid organizational changes it is hard for the last set of improvements to take hold before moving onto the next.
